Made In 4-Quart Stainless Clad Saucepan

The Made In 4-Quart Stainless Clad Saucepan is the mid-size pot that bridges a small saucepan and a stock pot. It holds enough water to cook pasta for two, blanch a bunch of greens, or make a family-size batch of polenta or mashed potatoes, while remaining small enough to heat quickly and handle easily. Its stainless and aluminum layers extend from the base up the walls to the rim, so heat reaches the contents from every side and thick foods cook through without scorching at the edges.

Why It Performs

• Clad from base to rim: Because the conductive layers extend up the walls, thick preparations such as polenta, risotto, and tomato sauce heat evenly rather than catching at the bottom edge.
• Responsive heat: The pan reacts quickly when the burner is adjusted, so a boil drops to a steady simmer without boiling over.
• Fitted lid: The stainless lid speeds boiling and holds in steam for grains and braised vegetables.
• Rolled rim: Sauces, stocks, and soups pour cleanly without running down the side.
• Stay Cool Handle: The riveted, hollow stainless handle slows the transfer of heat and remains comfortable to grip on the stovetop.

What It Does Best

• Pasta for two and family-size batches of grains
• Polenta, risotto, and mashed potatoes
• Tomato sauce and other long reductions
• Blanching vegetables and boiling eggs by the dozen
• Soups, stocks, and small-batch frying

Choosing the Right Made In Pan

For sauces, grains, and reheating for one or two, the Made In 2-Quart Stainless Clad Saucepan is the smaller companion. For full pots of pasta, stock, or soup, step up to the Made In 6-Quart Stainless Clad Stock Pot. This saucepan is also included in the Made In Stainless Clad 10-Piece Cookware Set.
